To curb global marine and air pollution, stricter limits on the sulfur dioxide content of marine exhaust gases stipulated by the E.U. and International Maritime Organization (IMO) will apply beginning in 2020. From an engineering point of view, this can…
Model 1550 and 1553 pressure gages from this company’s U.S. Gauge range (photo) are liquid-filled, which protects the internals from vibrations and pulsations encountered when the gages are mounted on pumps or compressors. Furthermore, liquid filling makes the gage easier…
The HDC fluidized bed dryer (photo) operates in open systems, as well as in closed, inert-gas loops to keep dried granules in evenly floating, fluidized motion. Besides standard setups for such high-capacity applications as soda, polymer and fertilizer drying, for…
The Quad Pulse Package 2 (QPP2) dust collector (photo) has two main filter cartridges designed to handle air volumes from 590 to 1,765 ft 3 /min. The QPP2 also features a cleanable filter system that allows manufacturers to run continuous…
The new Rosemount CT4400 continuous gas analyzer (photo) is said to be the world’s first purpose-built quantum cascade laser (QCL) and tunable diode laser (TDL) analyzer designed to help plants reduce ownership costs and report emissions accurately in environmental monitoring…
Showcased last month at Interphex in New York City, this company’s MSE6-E2M pneumatic energy-efficiency module (photo) monitors the condition of pneumatics on process equipment, skids or packaging machinery, enabling users to decrease consumption of energy and compressed air. The module…
The model PSM-700 rugged pressure switch (photo) offers a switch differential adjustable over a wide range, very high repeatability. The PSM-700 has a UL-listed micro switch that switches at electrical powers up to 250 V a.c. and 10 A. With…
The Nitrogenema enclosure series (photo) is capable of protecting processes by nearly eliminating moisture or oxygen with the flow of inert gas and is said to be far more economical than a cumbersome metal isolator. Operator and process safety are…
The CSF-ABW two-stage backwash filter (photo) is a fully automatic water-filtration system that is contained within a single vessel. The first stage is a coarse-screen flushing filter with a 1/8–1/2-in. slotted screen for quick self-cleaning. The second stage is a…
The new pressure sensors of the PS+ Series (photo) can be commissioned particularly easily and provide reliable measurements with intuitive operation. Overhead mounting is possible, since sensor heads can be rotated over a range of 340 deg. After the sensor…
